What Cass’s final document finds, largely, is an absence. “The reality is that we have no good evidence on the long-term outcomes of i…

Plenty of ideas in mind for this!

User seeks ideas on the application of AI in cybersecurity beyond threat detection. They invite discussion on existing uses or potential innovations. https://reddit.com/r/cybersecurity/comments/1c3zy3k/

@… Maybe you have some ideas here since phones frequently have firmware blobs?

Found another great example of #HomeAssistant implementing the weird ideas of the developers in the face of common sense - people wanted hierarchical areas (heater IS-IN closest IS-IN bedroom IS-IN upstairs, etc.) Currently only one area is supported for a device.

Developers add ... the concept of floors which adds one level of hierarchy and that no-one wanted because it's a…

"Economists have a metric known as the “four-firm concentration ratio,” sometimes deployed in shorthand as “CR4.” It is a measure of competitiveness in a market for goods or services. When four companies gain a combined market share that is greater than 40 percent, an oligopoly has formed." https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2024/04/food-industry-monopoly-power/678005/

The Supreme Court's Colorado Opinion Is About Fear, Not Law
This case wasn’t decided on its merits, and the result is an utterly flimsy legal argument.

Towards a representer theorem for identification of passive systems
A major problem in system identification is the incorporation of prior knowledge about the physical properties of the given system, such as stability, positivity and passivity. In this paper, we present first steps towards tackling this problem for passive systems. In particular, using ideas from the theory of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces, we solve the problem of identifying a nonnegative input-output operator from data consisting of input-output trajectories of the system. We prove a repr…
